# Malware Report Writer

Create professional, comprehensive malware analysis reports for enterprise security teams, incident response, and threat intelligence.

## Execution Model

- **You write the report.** Read `analysis_state.md` and the evidence directory yourself (triage report, `procmon_summary.txt`, `sysmon_summary.txt`, tshark exports, decoded scripts, detection rule files) and draft every section from that. Ask the user only for what the evidence cannot tell you: engagement name, analyst name, audience, classification/TLP, and gaps you have flagged.
- **Locate skill files.** Scripts and reference files ship in this skill's directory. Set `R="${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT:-<dir containing this SKILL.md>}"` once (when installed as a plugin `$CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT` is set; otherwise it is this skill folder). Your working directory is the user's analysis workspace, so prefix every script path below with `$R`, e.g. `python3 "$R"/scripts/ioc_extract.py`.
- **Author the YARA rule from the evidence** (runtime-decrypted strings, unique UA/URI, mutex, PDB path, config markers) and **test it yourself** when `yara` is installed — see **Testing YARA rules**. If it cannot be tested, mark the rule `UNTESTED` in the report; never present an untested rule as validated.
- **Defang at write time.** Run any IOC list through `python3 scripts/ioc_extract.py` (repo root) rather than defanging by hand.
- **Output is a file.** Write `reports/<sample>_report.md` in the user's workspace (create the directory), then print the executive summary and the quality-checklist result. Never leave template placeholders in the delivered file.
- **State what was not done.** Phases skipped, network not observed, packer not defeated — these go in the report's limitations, not silently omitted.
